Question: I would also be interested to know what black newspapers have been published in the state/territory of Alaska.
Answer: The Alaska State Library’s Guide to Alaska Newspapers on Microfilm identifies these titles as African American newspapers:
- Anchorage Gazette
- Anchorage Spotlight
- Anchorage Town Crier
- Crusader
- Midnight Sun Reporter
- New Horizon
- North Star Reporter
- Vox Populi
You can find more information about these titles in the Guide (linked above), under the "Anchorage" heading. The Alaska State Library’s collections include some issues of these newspapers on microfilm, but coverage is incomplete. Another post on this blog describes how to request our microfilm through interlibrary loan.
